Fabric Covered Magnet Board for Bead Organization

Description: I grabbed a magnet board from IKEA to use as a way to store my beads in my craft room. I wanted it to look girly, so I covered it with pretty fabric!

I cut the fabric to slightly larger than my magnet board and then just applied Mod Podge over the fabric to adhere it to the board. I did two total coats, and let it dry for a day before putting on the second coat.

After the top was dry, I trimmed away some of the fabric from the sides and then just wrapped it around and hot glued it to the back of the board.

I hung the board on my craft room wall, and put mini-metal containers with magnets hot glued onto the back full of beads!

Can I ask where you got the metal containers? I have magnets all over the place (I seem to LIKE them, so they just hop in my cart at HD!)I almost bought ANOTHER plastic container for beads..but I LOVE This!

You could try just hot gluing it, but it will be hard to get the front to lie so smooth then. also, I hot glued magnets onto little metal containers to put on the board to hold the beads, so if you don’t mod podge the fabric down every time you pull a magnet off it will pull on the fabric – might mess it up a little bit!
